Screamers: The Hunting (2009 Video)

I wish a screamer killed this movie

Warning: Spoilers
Even if you don't compare it to the first movie this one completely sucked and it's all because of the script.

As per usual the token black guy gets killed simply because another guy losses his "tag" a device which stops the machines from killing you. I wouldn't have a problem with this however the death is stupid, because the tag couldn't have gone far and it contradicts the first movie where being close to a person with a tag on works as well.

The movie reaches another climax of eye rolling with the required romantic sex scene which obviously needs to be put in every movie, only this one makes no sense at all. She meets the guy for less then a day, hardly even talks to him then decides to have sex?! What?!

Another fart in the script is the mistrust between the "unreal" trashcan women and one of the other survivors which leads to the death of the women. Way too much anger from other characters is placed on someone I simply couldn't seeing them really caring much about which makes the whole thing feel artificial.

The special effects can get really bad however I'm not going to criticise them for that seeing as the budget was obviously small, however showing the non-human screamers operating in full view just cheapened the movie and made them look like toy remote control cars.

I wish they didn't end the movie the way it did as it ruins the chances of a good screamers movie ever occurring. The writer ruined the movie then made sure no other good movie could be written after this crap.
